Little pack ice left in arctic by summer by 2015!!



You should be cheering, it will make Alaska a much more pleasant place, surfing on the north slope!

The climate changes, that is the natural condition. It changed for millions of years before we were born, and will continue to change for millions of years after we are gone. The thought that human actions can control that is the ultimate liberal hubris.

If the rich are trying to take over the country (as we liberals maintain) what would they do? They would convince people democracy is not good and they are better to lead the country. And some people fall for it.

Romney says that the rich should get richer as it is good for the country and he has a plan to reduce taxes on the rich and raise them on the middle class. It is out there. He says it.

conservatives are being fooled and are buying a pig in a poke.

When have you ever seen very powerful people care about those under them. Never!

If government rules things, you get to vote that government in. If the rich rule, you don't get shit.

There is a video of GWB where he is talking to a dinner of rich fat cats. He says to them: "they call you the elite, I call you my base.'

He said that!!

Ah now I see the video. Well, isn't pack ice supposed to be flushed out of the Arctic sea regularly? If not, it would build up and form some permanent miles deep ice age type ice pack.

Summer pack ice in the arctic sea isn't important. We know the arctic sea has had little summer ice in the past because we know of subs that have surfaced at the north pole decades ago.
